HS stingray pickup covers glued on?

[hambone1]

I was trying to change my covers on my 4 string HS stingray but noticed there was glue on the cover. I thought the 4 string basses covers were.nt glued on? Is this the same for any of you guys?

Thanks.

I think all of the new-style covers are glued on.
